NHLBI T-4 Research Capacity Building Initiative to Address Cardiovascular Diseases in Nepal

The purpose of this study is to develop capacity and infrastructure for cardiovascular disease (CVD) research in Nepal with a focus on hypertension prevention, screening and treatment. I am the lead international consultant on the project which is directed through Dhulikhel Hospital, Kathmandu University, Nepal. We have recruited and are training 16 clinical fellows to receive training and develop research projects related to hypertension and CVD. Faculty from UW and other US universities will provide training courses and mentoring to the fellows while supporting our colleagues in building a new program in non-communicable disease in Nepal.
